## Description

AKG K72 Wired Over_Ear Wired Headphones, Multicolor : desertcart.in: Electronics

Review: I was looking for a pair of budget headphones for my missis to replace a pair of Sony's I gave her that she'd broken. We've been through a few options before we settled for these, due to the following reasons: First off - they are very light and comfortable to wear. She definitely prefers them over stealing my Audio Technica's M50x, so that's a bonus for me :) I've tried them on myself and that's absolutely the case - you can almost forget you're wearing them, which is great. One thing to note here is that the headband is not adjustable, but it sort of kind of somewhat (you get the idea) stretches/floats into the position as-needed, and thus fit both my and my woman's heads just fine. You're unlikely to have sizing issues, but keep this in mind if you have an unusually large or small head, of if your ears happen to be somewhat higher/lower than usual. The sound quality isn't quite up to scratch with my M50x's, according to my own ears, but then again we're talking a 4-5x difference in price, so that's to be expected. Are they 4-5x worse? Absolutely not! They're actually very good headphones for the price, especially after burning them in (but they sound good out-of-the-box too, in case you're one of those people who don't believe in dynamic deiver burn-in). My woman likes them very much, so that's all subjective, as with most things, especially considering that I fiddle with audio equipment and get annoyed by flaws that she doesn't even notice. The cable is non-detachable, so you will either have to bin these cans or try to repair them if you mess the cable up. And, of course, you don't get the option to swap cables for different lengths or get a coiled cable. Those are some of the reasons why I like having more expensive headphones, but not everyone cares about these things, of course. If you're environmentally-conscious and prefer less disposable things - consider a pair where you can swap the cable, as it's usually the weak link in these things. My missis has had these for a few months now and so far she's very happy with them. I'll try to update this review if/when something breaks, as I do also personally like it when people share common faults with products, so others know what to expect and avoid. Overall, I definitely recommend these cans over other products in the same price range. We've been through a few options before we settled for these, due to their great sound quality and a very comfortable fit.
Review: Poor materials, unnecessary long cords, the sound is more tribal. I can say that it doesn't produce a natural sound.

Ich war auf der Suche nach einem bequemen, robusten Kopfhörer mit einem tollen Klang. Alles habe ich in diesem recht günstigen von AKG gefunden. Der selbstjustierende Träger funktioniert super und die Ohrmuschel sind ausreichend gepolstert dh. die Kopfhörer kann man lange tragen (auch mit Brille). Der Klang ist wie erwartet recht neutral aber auch warm. Man kann damit alles hören. Der Bass ist nicht "mega" aber auch für Elektronische Musik ausreichend. Für Rock ist er sowieso gut, weil er die analogen Instrumente schön warm wiedergibt. Das Kabel ist sehr lang und sehr dick. Ansonsten ist das Design schön und robust. Kann ihn wirklich nur empfehlen.
